"Wait, do you mean the one off of Rose Drive? The one I went to with Matthew?" I ask, a little shocked that she would ever go to a place like that.
"Yeah! That one, wow, I didn't think you remembered." She looks surprised.
"What, Matthew? or the Theatre?" I say sarcastically.
"The Theatre" she smiles.
Back in Kansas, there was an old Theatre building that I used to go to, It was said to be haunted. I stopped going soon after my friend Matthew moved away and I met Jamie.
After a few moments of silence, my dad yells to us that dinner is done. We both jump up simultaneously.
"My mom has made this recipe a few times since you guys moved away, but the is just something about the way you make it, Mr. J, she just couldn't make it right, I am honored to eat this."
We both let out a laugh and my dad smiles at us.
After dinner, we head upstairs with Jamie's stuff and get everything laid out and cleaned up.
"What do you wanna do?" I ask her
"Let's play truth or dare!" she quickly squeals.
"Oh gosh, okay, fine." I say, hesitantly, "But go easy on me"
"Okay, I'll go easy" she says, sort of mischievously.
We play for awhile, and she, like she said she would, goes easy on me.

My phone starts playing Nightmare by Avenged Sevenfold 273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGdqz8cghb
"Hello?" I say into the speaker, after answering the unkown caller ID.
"Are you okay, Elle?" a familiar mans voice asks through the phone. It doesn't take me more than 5 seconds to realize who it is.
"Antonio?"
"Oh, so we are on a first name basis now? Good to know." I feel him smiling through the phone. "So, you are okay? Who is with you? Where are you at?"
"Yeah, I'm fine, I'm at my house with Jamie, why? Is something wrong.? I ask, getting worried now.
"Are you doing something dangerous?"
"No, well unless you consider playing Truth or Dare dangerous, then again, it's Jamie, so I suppose you could."
I hear him let out a heavy breath, "Okay, so everything is fine?" He asks, sounding relieved.273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8t9dWmsFn
"Yeah, everything's okay." I reply.
We exchange a few more words before I hang up.
"Antonio?" Jamie asks.
"Uh.. yeah, that's uh, that's Mr. Moreno, the other guy that was at the hospital."
"YOUR TEACHER HAS YOUR NUMBER!" she yells, I urge her to be quieter, "AND YOU CALL HIM BY HIS FIRST NAME!?" she yells, quieter than last time, though not much.
"Yeah, I do, and I honestly don't even know how he got my number." I reply, sort of confused. "Should we get back to the game?" I ask, trying to avoid the concept.
"Yeah" she smiles. "But, enough going easy."
"Wait, what do you mean, no, that's not fair, I used all my chickens already! I didn't know it was going to get harder!" I complain.
"Yep, that's just life, you ready?" she says
"no?"
"Too bad, Truth or Dare?"
"Dare?" I say, knowing any truth would lead to an awkward conversation, and hoping she had no good dares left.
"YAY!" she squeals, clapping her hands together, "Call your teacher back and ask him to come over"
I stare at her, eyes wide and mouth agape. God, I want her to be kidding so bad, but I know she isn't.
"Come on, don't be scared, he seems nice." she smiles
I grab my phone, unlock it, and got to my recents, hands shaking the whole time.
"Put it on speaker too" she adds as I press the call button on the number he called me from, not 5 minutes ago.
It doesn't ring more than 3 times and it still feels like forever.
"You couldn't last 5 minutes without calling back, huh? I figured you would have at least gone 15 minutes, maybe 30, considering your with your friend." his menacing voice teases through the phone.
I take a deep breath before saying "You wanna come over?"
He doesn't say anything for a couple seconds, "You want me too?".
I look up at Jamie and see her nodding her head vigorously.
"Uh" another deep breath "Yeah". I close my eyes and mentally beg him to say he has plans, but instead, he hangs up.
"What! he didn't even answer you!" she says, almost sounding offended.

I get a text from his number 273Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJOr5DItPZ
'I know why' It reads
'Why did you hang up?' I reply
"It was a dare and you were on speaker, I was trying not to say the stuff that was going through my head'
'So, are you gonna come over?' I ask, but for me, not for Jamie this time.
'I know you only did it for a dare, so I guess not😘'
'Well, what if I told you I want you to?😐'
'Then I would be at your window in a flash'
'maybe don't come that quick, she'll wonder how you did it'
"Is he coming?" Jamie asks me after I shut my phone off.
"Yeah he'll be here soon"
We go down and grab some snacks then head back up. It's been almost 10 minutes and I hear a knock at my window.
"He's here!" Jamie whisper/squeals to me, looking to the window through the corner of her eyes.
I walk over, unlatch my window, and open it, taking in a big whiff of that amazing cologne. I can see his eyes travel down my body and back up, stopping at my waist.
"No pants?" He comments on my choice of sleepwear, which consisted of an oversized Nirvana Tee and underwear. "Good choice" he whispers, before hopping into my room.
